A circuit board storage bag and a storage rack are disclosed. A plurality of printed circuit board storage bags for accommodating a circuit board comprise a front surface portion and a rear surface portion opposed to the obverse and reverse surfaces, respectively, of the circuit board accommodated in the circuit board storage bag and connecting portions for connecting the front surface portion and the rear surface portion. The front surface portion and the rear surface portion bend at the connecting portions to open and close the circuit board storage bag for use in transporting the circuit board. The circuit boards are stored in a storage rack having an inclined mounting surface for mounting the storage bags and a bag stopper at the lower end of the mounting surface. The bags are stored in vertical position on one side at the lower end of the mounting surface.

Circuit board storage bag and storage rack

An information storage unit stores pieces of information that are classified on the basis of their relationships. An information providing unit provides a client terminal with information stored in the information storage unit via a communication network in response to an access request from the client terminal. An access frequency acquiring unit acquires access frequencies, for respective classification items of the pieces of information, of accesses to the pieces of information. An information generating unit generates prescribed information so that pieces of information of plural classification items will be displayed in the client terminal in such a form as to be based on histories of the access frequencies.

Information providing system and information providing method

A work-flow support having: a processing wait task storage unit that temporarily stores a task execution request and a rule interpretation execution unit executes a task corresponding to the execution request stored in the rule interpretation execution unit under the execution of another task according to rules. The rule interpretation execution unit and the task history storage unit manage history information about each task which has initiated its execution. The rule interpretation execution unit allows a task connection information storage unit to store therein connection information for connecting history information about the task corresponding to the execution request and another task to be executed to one another. When the history information about a task corresponding to a new execution request stored in the processing wait task storage unit is already stored in the task history storage unit, the rule interpretation execution unit notifies the corresponding history information to a request source of the new execution request and reflects the history information about the task corresponding to the new execution request and the history information about the already-stored task on connection information as history information about the same task.

Work-flow support system

The invention provides a workflow support system and a method of the same that enables to refer to and to trace the history and progress state of the control information, as to a workflow transferring into a different system and an atypical task. The data base contains a task control information for executing a workflow, and the conversion unit converts a task information into a task sheet being an electronic document, which is stored in the document data base or the open document server. The task control information contains a relation between the tasks and a pointer indicating a storage location of a task sheet corresponding to the task, and the pointer is contained also in the task sheet. The task sheets are linked by this pointer. Tracing this pointer makes it possible to refer to the task sheets of the tasks involved, to grasp the progress state, and further to trace the task sheets involved.

Workflow support system and method of the same

A user operates a user interface to select a rule for executing the process of a work flow, which is stored in a personal data base or a shared data base, and sends the conditional part of the selected rule as the goal to a query portion. Then, the query portion successively executes the process of the work flow through the computation by the SLD contradiction. When the goal fails in the execution by the computation, the failure goal is transferred as a tapple to the tapple space. The tapple is solved by another query portion, and the result of executing the tapple is returned to the tapple space. If a rule for executing the tapple is not found, the task is processed by man or a user and the result of the processing is entered into the system. In answer to this, the system interprets that the task has been proved to be true, and continues the execution of the work flow process.

Work flow support system

A structured document used for exemplifying a retrieved result is analyzed by a structure analyzing section, and its structure is expanded in a memory. A search-formula structure extracting section consecutively fetches fixed-type structural patterns stored in a knowledge base, and finds a structural pattern including a substructure of the structured document exemplified by the user. A search-condition extracting section determines a value of a field used for a search formula with respect to each of the records contained in the substructure extracted by the search-formula structure extracting section. A search-formula synthesizing section synthesizes an expression in a form which can be recognized as a search formula. The synthesized search formula can be modified by a search-formula editing section in compliance with an edit instruction from the user on condition that the exemplified substructure is retrievable.
